First State managing director Chris Turpin said: “Our proposals are intended to protect the interests of all investors, and in particular to ensure that our EU-based clients can continue to invest in our strategies irrespective of the outcome of the Brexit negotiations.”

“First State has operated Dublin-based pooled funds for almost 20 years and we have an established presence in Ireland.”
